treaty | roots

been on a kurouji kick and decided to combine my urge to draw him with the recurring thought i keep having of "what if hashirama really did found Konoha as soon as he became Clan Head". i feel like he'd be so much more vulnerable about everything lol...

madara's brothers list over here.

sorry this about ocs and only appeals to me . like its my fault.

The Truth of Family

Written for @foundersweek Day 6: Family!

T; 2k Madara/Tobirama & bb!Kagami

After facing down a rude little Senju, Kagami gets a gentle reminder that while his family may not be the one he was born to, or look like everyone might expect, he is not and never will be without them.

Underneath the Underneath

Handsome, powerful, charismatic; it was no exaggeration to say Senju Hashirama stood out in a crowd.  Nor that he had more than earned his title as the god of shinobi.  No longer was he a boy with a dream.  He had become a man of firm resolve.  One who possessed the ability to make a difference, and he had.

No longer was Hashirama just the heir, or even the Lord of the Senju Clan.  No, he was the First Hokage of Konohagakure no Sato, the man who had changed the face of the elemental nations through sheer force of will.  True, he had not done it alone.  But it was also true that it was to Hashirama that many looked to guide them into the future, and such men tended to cast long shadows.  

Was it any wonder that his younger brother was so often found hidden in said shadow?  A pale reflection of the ever glowing sun?  Tobirama was quiet where Hashirama was loud, reserved while his elder wore his own heart on his sleeve for all to see.  His piercing red eyes were ever watchful, causing more than one ninja to shiver under his gaze.

It was all too easy to think the pale shinobi didn’t care.  To believe that the dreaded Demon of the Senju was all Tobirama was.  To listen to the insidious rumors that claimed the frankly intimidating man lived and breathed for nothing but the blood soaked fields of battle.  

They didn’t see long nights doing paperwork by candlelight as Tobirama struggled to bring his brother’s dream of a peaceful village to life.  Plans drafted and redrafted by a steady hand, guided by a brilliant mind.  They were ignorant of the grief that lingered in that guarded heart for those that had been lost too soon.  Blind to his soft smile as Tobirama watched the children play.  A smile that those who loved him found more precious than diamonds, and far more beautiful.

Warmonger, they called him, never knowing of the conversations that took place behind closed doors.  Of the endless devotion Tobirama showed in his quest to fulfil his Lord Brother’s will.  They never knew, never even considered that the pale man might have dreams of his own.  Just like they never realized, that without water, the forest would wither and die.

.the morning will come again / tobisasu / 25.8k / for day 2 of founders week: AUs

Hashirama’s laugh is deep and boisterous, a reflection of his entire personality. “You’re really interesting, you know? No wonder Tobirama fell in love with you. You’re not at all like most courtesans.”

Sasuke doesn’t know if he’s supposed to be flattered or offended by the comment.

(featuring the rare romance of Tobirama and Sasuke. this also doubles as my birthday gift to Sasuke, since July 23 is his day :D)

Birthday Melancholy

Written for Hashirama’s Birthday, thus also for day 1 of @foundersweek!

T; 1.1k Hashirama & Tobirama

Hashirama knows he is too old to be so saddened by something so petty as his brother's absence on his birthday, but he can't help it. . .

This is an even earlier installment of my Brothers series, which (later, particularly) features a good deal of confusion on everyone’s parts except Hashi and Tobi’s as to the . . . exact . . . extent of their relationship with one another.

Here they’re still kids, if ninja kids with far too little childhood, and they’re affectionate and (stably) codependent, but that’s all.
